Title:
  the network indicator shows the wrong status

Status in indicator-applet package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Description:	Ubuntu 16.04 LTS
  Release:	16.04

  indicator-applet:
    Installed: (none)
    Candidate: 12.10.2+15.04.20141127.2-0ubuntu1
    Version table:
       12.10.2+15.04.20141127.2-0ubuntu1 500

  The network indicator sometimes shows the icon for wired connections
  and sometimes claims wifi without connection even though I'm
  consistently connected over wifi. I don't mean to say that it switches
  between these two or that always is wrong. But sometimes my connected
  to wifi symbol changes to wired. Other times it will change to the no
  connection wifi. The info is correct on boot, but switches over time,
  possibly after suspension.
